Support long-path format path names

Open whoisj opened this issue 8 years ago • 0 comments

Due to limitation of the .Net Framework (NetFx) Windows long-path formatted paths are unsupported. This leaves users who are dependent on them without a viable way to authenticate with VSTS, GitHub, Bitbucket, and other hosts.

The issue was first reported in the Git for Windows repository issue tracker (https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1269) but is likely to become more common place as utilities like NPM continue to make longer and longer paths a requirement. 😏
